South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust
We are an NHS foundation trust, providing a range of community, mental health and learning disability services in Barnsley, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield.
We also provide some specialist medium secure services to the whole of Yorkshire and the Humber.
We put people who need to use our services, and their carers, at the very centre of everything we do.
We want to enable people to enjoy productive, full and independent lives in the heart of their communities.
To encourage the use of creative approaches in healthcare, which can increase self-esteem, provide a sense of purpose, develop social skills and improve quality of life, the Trust has developed an initiative called Creative Minds.
Our Creative Minds work is altering the perceptions of how we deliver our services and not only underlines our commitment to creative approaches but also provides more opportunities for individuals and groups to develop and grow creatively.
